In a startling moment during Day 1 of the second and final Test between India and West Indies, fast bowler Jayden Seales accidentally struck Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal with a throw. The incident occurred during India’s first innings at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Friday, October 10.

In the second Test, Team India decided to bat first after winning the toss. In the first Test in Ahmedabad, the hosts, captained by Shubman Gill, had already won by an innings and 140 runs. In Test cricket, India has not lost to the West Indies since 2002.

Before lunch, India amassed 94 runs in 28 overs at a cost of one wicket.  The only wicket to fall was KL Rahul, who struck 38 from 54 balls. While the West Indies needed to regroup for a more potent attack, Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal established a firm platform by displaying patience and poise against the new ball.

Jayden Seales hit Yashasvi Jaiswal with a throw on the fifth ball of the 29th over. Seales picked up the ball as Jaiswal drove a delivery straight down the ground, but he tossed it back in fury on his followed-through. As soon as the ball struck Jaiswal's front pad, Seales expressed regret for the occurrence.
